One Month Later: Sadowsky MetroExpress Bass Review...This bass OVERDELIVERS!

Музыка

After one month of using and testing the #sadowsky Metro Express, here is my deep dive review on what you need to know about this bass. As a session bass player and a bass repair guy, I have tested a lot of different basses under the jazz bass category but the Sadowsky Metro Express has overdelivered beyond it's price point.
I have tested this bass on different scenarios on recordings and live sets so in my humble opinion, that is the best way to know the full potential of any gear before doing a review.
Shout out to the Warwick-Sadowsky team in Germany for letting me experience this bass. From Hans Peter Wilfer, Nicolas Wilfer and Roger Sadowsky, Thank you for this oppotunity!

    My Kiesel/Carvin basses come shipped with excellent set up, and brand new Dunlop super bright strings.

    I picked up the 4 string PJ Metroexpress recently, I know the phrase 'plays like butter' is overused but... it really does. I might possibly drop the Sadowsky VTC preamp in there at some point, but the more I play it, the less I feel it needs it. Tried it back to back in the store with some far more expensive Fenders and it wasn't even a contest, the Sadowsky came home with me, haha.

    I know what you mean…felt the same. And yes the more I play it, the less the need to drop in a vtc….well for now. I have a snapshot with my hx stomp that controls that tone going from that modern slap thing to a vintage sounding jazz bass. And yes I wouldn’t trade this for a fender ultra sorry

    Yeah, the Sadowsky Blue Label strings are amazing!!! Sadowsky hit a home run with this bass!!! If I didn't have my 1st Gen Sire V7 5 upgraded with Bartolini dual-coil pickups, I would get one! I may consider a MetroExpress P/J which sounds FANTASTIC on KZread videos that I've watched!!!

    Do you still get a hum when soloing a pick up? I never noticed it before so I am not sure if it’s new, or it’s been there. Only have the bass about a month. Hum goes away when both pickups are on full so just like a regular single coils, but I thought it’s supposed to be noiseless. Love the bass though.

    Never got those 60cycle hum. Yeah for me this is the ultimate jazz bass…having tested and played numerous jazz basses…from fbass, fender elite to ultra and player plus, lakland, sire…this thing over delivers

    Nagpalagay ako preamp kay sir jay ng final shape with sadowsky config same sa SX mo sir, how does it compare to that bass?

  • 4 ай бұрын

    Malayo. Iba kasi q ng preamp freq points and headroom nya ang laki

  • 4 ай бұрын

    Dati akala ko madali lang ma copy mga preamps basta alam mo freq kaso pag di mo alam q ng freq points and how the pickups work with the preamp….malayo ka copya…they work hand in hand together. Like sobrang match sila. Naintindihan ko lang ito nung nagkaroon ako ng sadowsky mismo

    Tsaka tong preamp na to boost only. Mga gawa sa akin ni final shale before may cut.
